or other body fluid like joints or blood. Interesting science of eventually placing these microbots inside our bodies to help heal us.

Reminds me of that movie where they shrunk down and went into a man's body - can't remember the name.

Maybe they can do a remake combining it with Honey I shrunk the kids and Fantastic voyage.

It really shouldn't elicit an ewww response because micro then nano technology is what likely will be saving people's lives in our very near future. O0

I went to school for respiratory therapy and had to watch a operation in my clinicals. Believe me after that you never think of your own body the same way again. I still think it is kinda gross. I am not doubting the validity of it at all. Nano technology is a wonderful thing. But to me whether it is a bacteria or a nanobot swimming around in there it makes me squeamish.
So sue me
